If we start to allow parti colors as part of the standard how will it change the yorkie? The answer is simple. We don't know. It would only be answered by doing it and taking that risk. That is what it would be a risk to allow the parti color gene in because it opens the door to so many other genes to follow. That is where it gets dangerous. What else is behind that gene other than color? Who can answer that? That is the real question. |
I disagree with because we don't know how it will change the yorkie, the parts shouldn't be bred . If that logic were applied to all things unknown, we would still be living in caves.
As to what horrible genes and dangers lie behind that color??? Since partis and biewers have been bred for a number of years now, I believe any surprises or hidden dangers would have been exposed at this point.
